A nice little country sitting next to France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, and Norway! the people here are quite normal and do not speak all posh like in american films ,nor do they sit around all day drinking tea and eating scones! we do sometimes like a bit of tea and cake, but we also love the fizzy stuff and ice-cream.
We are not that obsessed with football, some of us would rather do cartwheels down hills or watch an awsome tv programe like Doctor who, Lost, Heroes, the X-Factor, Eastenders, My Family or something depressing and worring like Panorama. sometimes Americans decide to copy Brit TV programes which is annoying, but we do love some American tv shows!
We have also produced some wicked Authors: Jk Rowling -Harry potter, Jane Austen, Charles Dickens or Shakespeare! there are also some cool musicans and stuff, Queen, Leona Lewis, The Beatles, The Who and a load of other cool people! we have plenty of awsome actors too! we also gave the world: King Arthur, the knights of the round table and Merlin. we have a lot of history!
most of us have no idea why some people, ehem, AMERICANS, have taken a strong dislike to the English,(probably just jealous of our unpredictable weather) which is silly since some of us have never met an american and most have never offended one.
we are nice. ignore the government and all that. they annoy us too. we hate homework, animal cruelty, maths, double maths, spiders, peas and Twilight. Well I do anyway!
England is full of people. 6 million roughly.
England has a silly sense of humour
England is over there.

Named after the Angles/Anglos at the time, which divided up the British Isle into Angle-land, Wessex, and a place for the natives. Neighbor to Wales and Scotland, and part of the United Kingdom. Once one of the greatest empires in the world, it still holds some clout. The capital is London, which is by far the worst place in it, being over crowded, about two degrees hotter than the rest of england. Known for inventing both Ping-pong and football, it was also the first country to use or even think up soap. A beautiful place, though it is, at times, a bit dreary.
It was one of the first nations to give right to former slaves, and has already had a female leader, something the rest of the world seems to completely ignore.
The English are known for being bitterly sarcastic, and are quite critical of everything.
As far as music goes, punk is ours. Many a great composer and singer has come from Angle-land. Andrew Lloyd Webber is from England, as was Shakespeare.
One of the first to reject the Catholic Church, though that was just over divorce issues.
Also known by their enemies, the French, who they will bicker with and insult until someone tries to do the same, in which case they will defend them.
The food is wonderful in England, contrary to popular belief.
The flag of England is the Saint George's Cross.
England is also not to be confused with Britain, or the United Kingdom.
"Just lie back, and think of England." A rather nice song.
Git of any particular ethnicity(Let's say American, though It could be any nationality/ethnicity/race), "Oi. You're from England. Does that mean your related to Simon Cowell/The Queen/Hugh Laurie."
Me, "One, I'm British, as I am half welsh. Two, you're America. Does that mean you are related to George Bush?"

A term to discribe decline of a previously civilized Western European country. As a result of conservative, strictly free economy capitalist govenrment.
Also meaning the influence that U.S.A may have on the policies of smaller countries often allies. Related to old term Finlandization. Finlandisierung
This period of conservatism has been, in effect, the politics of economic decline. We have been unsettled spectators at the Englandization of our economy. Our universities, government programs, health care system, libraries, and roads are all becoming more modest--some of them slightly shabby, like pensioners who can't replace their tattered socks.The politics of decline has produced an ethic in which people, facing shrinking fortunes, are pitted against each other. In this environment people care more about preserving what they can for themselves than contributing to the commonwealth, the common good. Taxes are resented as an unwarranted intrusion, rather than as a contribution to such community benefits as education, transportation, street lights, and safety.

A country obsessed with it's national football team despite not having won a relevant tournament in over four decades. Their football fans are the only fans in the world that a) celebrate BEFORE winning a world cup or Euro cup and b) give death threats to those players (they feel) responsible for failing their countries team. Whenever facing off against their rivals Germany, they will, prior to face-off, hide behind immature WW2 references, mostly consisting of uneducated claims that they singlehandedly won two world wars.
The current 2000's England squad is the very first England squad to allow violent inbreds to compete for a major sporting event. It also features David Beckham, the first ever England captain to be sent off.
Whenever their national team lose (and they are only ever destined to) the country will sink into a deep depression and will show remarkable denial. Plently of riots in town centres and council estates will emerge. Then, the day after, everyone will pretend that the English national squad was only a 'side' interest and will claim that their heart is with club football. At least, for another 2 years.
obsessed football lose england arrogant overconfident

Simply, the greatest country in the world. Any negative points said about it, is basically jelousy and every country has equal or far worse points. Britain created the British empire which covered most of the world, and started the industrial revolution which was a turning point in history... Also, our friends in the West, America, uses our language... and along with other countries makes it one of the most spoken languages in history. If it wasn't for England, good ol US of A would be full of native americans, and you woudnt have the necessities you have and take for granted. How great a country must we be, to rule most of the world, and achieving all this even though our country is so small!
WE MAY HAVE A CRAP FOOTBALL TEAM, BUT WE INVENTED FOOTBALL, SO HOW BOUT THAT! in conclusion, England is a phenominal country, and has achieved so much!
"England is so small, but has created so much"
